AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO A LINKING AGREEMENT WITH SDB INC., FOR JOB ORDER CONTRACTING FOR VARIOUS CONSTRUCTION TRADES
Presented by: Michelle Woytenko, Director, Field Operations |
| Purpose and Recommended Action |
| This is a request for City Council to authorize the City Manager to enter into a Linking Agreement with SDB Inc., for Job Order Contracting for Various Construction Trade Services in an amount not to exceed $6,000,000 for the entire term of the Agreement, and to authorize the City Manager to renew the Agreement, at the City Manager’s discretion, for an additional three (3), one-year renewals. The initial term of the Agreement is effective until September 3, 2021.
|
| Background |
The Agreement with SDB, Inc. will be used for general maintenance, renovations and repairs at City of Glendale facilities on an as-needed basis.
SDB, Inc. was awarded a bid by Mohave Cooperative as described in the Job Order Contractor for Facilities Management Contract and staff is requesting to utilize the cooperative purchase with Strategic Alliance for Volume Expenditures (SAVE). SAVE is a consortium of local municipalities in which Glendale is a member. Contract No. 19F-SDB-0904 was awarded on June 25, 2014, and is effective through September 4, 2019, and includes an option to renew the contract annually, allowing the contract to be extended through September 4, 2024.
Cooperative purchasing allows counties, municipalities, schools, colleges and universities in Arizona to use a contract that was competitively procured by another governmental entity or purchasing cooperative. Such purchasing helps reduce the cost of procurement, allows access to a multitude of competitively bid contracts, and provides the opportunity to take advantage of volume pricing. The Glendale City Code authorizes cooperative purchases when the solicitation process utilized complies with the intent of Glendale’s procurement processes. This cooperative purchase is compliant with Chapter 2, Article V, Division 2, Section 2-149 of the Glendale City Code, per review by Materials Management.
|
| Analysis |
| Facilities Management staff oversees 3.5 million square feet of city facilities dispersed over 55 square miles throughout the city. This Agreement will allow the City of Glendale departments to continue to provide general maintenance and repairs on an as-needed basis to its tenants in city facilities, without interruption of service.
